Hr termination

Hello all.

I have had a bit of bad news. My company feels HR is no longer required in our UK office, specially a full time position and have terminated my contract. I am deeply sadden by this, but at the same time not surprised as this has confirmed my fears.

The trouble is I am still studying for my CIPD diploma Level 5 under an apprenticeship. Although I was looking for a new role anyway who will support me with this before the news, I am feeling the pressure now as once I have left my current role, I have no choice but to put my apprenticeship on hold. I was struggling to find a role who will support me before I was terminated. Now I am feeling it is going to be nearly impossible.

Has anyone been in a similar situation?  

Please can anyone offer me some advice or perhaps anyone who will know anyone who is recruiting. 

I appreciate any help from anyone.

  • I'm so sorry you're in this situation Shelley. It's a really difficult thing to deal with and I hope you've got some good, supportive people in your life who will help in person.

    In relation to future employers, I can only speak for my perspective - but I would view someone mid-apprenticeship positively and wouldn't see that as any kind of negative, if I were handling your application. It shows that you're hard working, willing to put in the effort to support your own career, and in a manner that is very cost effective for an employer. I really hope that this is what you find when you go to the market.

    Best of luck.
  • Hello Nina. Thank you so much for your kind words. I really hope that I find an employer will view it the same way as you would do. This might be just my own feedback, but it might be the way that I approach the topic. When the situation arises, I always request if the employer will 'support me with my apprenticeship' I can't help but feel there may be a better way to request it and sell it as an opportunity for any business. I am ready to try another tactic. Many thanks again for your feedback.
